2025 2 oz Samoa Staff of Hermes Caduceus Silver Coin (Box + CoA, Gilded)
The Caduceus is an ancient emblem associated with Greek mythology and the god Hermes. As the story goes, Hermes used his staff to separate two fighting snakes, and afterward they wrapped themselves around the rod in a balanced form. This image has become a lasting symbol and serves as the basis for the Samoa Staff of Hermes Silver Coin, which includes a rotating inset coin at its center.
